Motorola Nexus 6 drop test

Motorola Nexus 6 drop test


While we wait for the launch of the Motorola Nexus 6 of Google until mid-December, the smartphone in the US has been a drop subjected to testing. With 6 inch the Nexus 6 is really very great and therefore presumably more vulnerable to damage to the display that can arise in a fall. But by the aluminum frame, it should stand on the frame slightly more especially when falling. Drop tests are of course no scientific studies, but can give a glimpse of what a smartphone can stand still. But in the end it is also important as it falls and where it strikes. In the case of the Nexus 6 has not survived – so much I can anticipate.

 The Motorola Nexus 6 is based by design on the new Moto X (2014) has, with its 6-inch AMOLED display but once again much larger. The smartphone is protected by an aluminum frame that really feels very high quality. The rounded sides of it, despite the size still comfortably in the hand . The size is in a crash course the disadvantage that the rather large display can be easily damaged. Really sturdy Nexus 6 is not the case, because other smartphones also hold a fall directly on the display.


In the subsequent drop test, the Motorola Nexus 6 is first dropped on the side frame of aluminum. This fall puts the smartphone away still loose. The only damage that are visible are several scratches and minor dents on the aluminum. Can you get over in the end, if you thereby be smart not completely destroyed. Worse is the result from a fall directly on the 6-inch display. The smartphone is not flat on, but jumps to the front edge to edge, so that the same display fragmented to multiple edges – even after the largest impact energy has been absorbed. The cause’s massive damage to the display and then this is also defective. The smartphone seems to vibrate and run the AMOLED display but does not survive the fall.
